As each day of the transfer window passes by, Arsenal fans, including myself, eagerly wait for a positive breakthrough regarding Youri Tielemans.
The Belgian international is said to be high up on Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu's shortlist this summer, with talks between the club and the player's representatives taking place over the last few months, football.london understands.
Looking in from the outside, it would appear much of the groundwork for a potential move has already been laid out, making it easier to revisit a deal later on in the window. Tielemans' reported eagerness to join and the lack of interest from elsewhere have meant Arsenal remain fairly relaxed, but they will also know that there's a risk when taking a more laid-back approach.
